Change Of Neighborhood In Nuisance Cases, Martin A. Levitin
Change Of Neighborhood In Nuisance Cases, Martin A. Levitin
Cleveland State Law Review
The law of nuisance lies somewhere between the legal principle that each person may use his property as he sees fit, and the contradictory principle that he must so use it as not to injure the property or rights of his neighbors. With the growth of our nation, and its changing balance between rural and urban populations, the established principles of tort law as applied to nuisances evidence the "elastic adaptability" of the common law.
Zoning--Townships--Complete Exclusion Of Trailer Camps And Parks, Rolfe A. Worden S.Ed.
Zoning--Townships--Complete Exclusion Of Trailer Camps And Parks, Rolfe A. Worden S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff challenged the validity of an amendment to the zoning ordinance of the defendant township which barred all trailer camps and parks from its industrial district. As trailer parks had previously been zoned out of the business, residential, and agricultural districts, this amendment had the effect of completely excluding them from the entire township, although approximately half of its twenty-three square miles consisted of open rural area. The parties stipulated that the plans of the plaintiff, who wanted to develop a trailer park on his premises, met all of the applicable health standards. The trial court sustained the amendment, but …

Constitutional Law - Due Process - Zoning Restrictions Requiring Land Owners To Provide Off-Street Parking, Eldon Olson
Constitutional Law - Due Process - Zoning Restrictions Requiring Land Owners To Provide Off-Street Parking, Eldon Olson
Michigan Law Review
In 1956 the City of Denver passed an ordinance requiring land owners to provide off-street parking if and when they erect new buildings or make structural alterations or change the existing use of the land. The restriction applied to a district adjacent to the traditional downtown district which was in the process of changing from residential to commercial. The ordinance did not specify whether the property owners retained control over parking areas, but the city argued that parking could be restricted to persons using the property. Plaintiff property owners alleged the ordinance was unconstitutional and were granted a declaratory judgment …

Municipal Corporations - Zoning - Exclusion Of Churches From Residential Area, William R. Luney S.Ed.
Municipal Corporations - Zoning - Exclusion Of Churches From Residential Area, William R. Luney S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
In two recent New York cases churches sought permits to use residential property for church purposes, including worship, social gatherings, construction of an adjacent parking lot, and, in one case, establishment of a school and playground. In each case the zoning board denied the permit on grounds that a church would change the residential character of the neighborhood, decrease the enjoyment of neighboring property, depreciate property values, and that the contemplated use of the property for other than worship was prohibited by the ordinance. The lower court upheld the decisions of both zoning boards. On appeal to the New York …

Constitutional Law- Zoning - Private High Schools Excluded From Zone In Which Public High Schools Permitted, William D. Keeler S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Among the uses permitted in the "A" residence zone by the Wauwatosa, Wisconsin zoning ordinance were "(e) Public Schools and Private Elementary Schools." The city building inspector denied to plaintiff, a private, non-profit religious corporation, a permit for the construction of a private high school in that zone. Plaintiff brought an action in mandamus to compel the issuance of such a permit, alleging that the ordinance deprived plaintiff of property without due process of law, and denied to it the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment. The lower court granted the writ. On appeal, held, …

Covenants - Effect Of Change Of Conditions On Equitable Restrictions, Dan K. Cook
Covenants - Effect Of Change Of Conditions On Equitable Restrictions, Dan K. Cook
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff was a lot owner in a residential district consisting of twenty-three blocks. Each lot in the district was subject to a restriction, imposed by the grantor, which limited the use of the lots to residence purposes. Subsequent to the imposition of this restriction, numerous oil and gas wells had been drilled in the territory surrounding the district, so that the lots in the district had depreciated in value approximately thirty-five to fifty per cent. By ordinance, the use zoning area which included the district had been changed from a residence use to an oil and gas use. At the …

The Rylands Vs. Fletcher Rule In West Virginia, Edmund C. Dickinson
The Rylands Vs. Fletcher Rule In West Virginia, Edmund C. Dickinson
West Virginia Law Review
The apparent tendency of recent legislation to recur to the early conception of liability regardless of fault has called attention again to that much discussed subject, and particularly to that manifestation of it which we call the rule in Rylands v. Fletcher. It is not the purpose of the writer to discuss the theoretical merits of that rule or to engage in any controversy as to its scope or utility. Assuming its existence and recognition in some jurisdictions, the purpose of this article is to analyze the West Virginia cases involving the doctrine with a view to ascertaining the extent …
